AI shopping agents: Why context comes before the query
AI shopping agents that guess at your vocabulary make expensive mistakes. Pre-computed catalog context stops the guessing before the first tool call.

jina-clip-v2 brings text-to-image search across 89 languages to Elasticsearch, no GPU needed
Run multimodal search across 89 languages inside Elasticsearch with jina-clip-v2: one embedding space for text and images, with no separate model infrastructure to manage.

How we built a persistent agent memory layer on Elasticsearch with 0.89 recall and zero tenant leaks
Discover the architecture behind a persistent, multi-tenant agent memory layer on Elasticsearch: three indices, hybrid retrieval with RRF and a reranker, supersession, decay, and per-user DLS isolation. R@10 0.89 across 168 questions. Full open-source implementation included.

Best practices for building a modern app with vector search
Exploring six vector search tips for building modern AI search applications entirely on Elasticsearch, with an opinionated rationale at each architectural decision.

Cutting agent costs with pre-computed context
Pre-computing context as Knowledge Indicators reduces LLM agent token costs by up to 75% and improves answer accuracy from 60% to 92%. This post covers the extraction, retrieval and feedback loop that make it work, tested against the BrowseComp-Plus benchmark.

How to measure and improve Elasticsearch search recall: from 0.43 to 0.75 with hybrid search
Learn how to measure and improve search recall in Elasticsearch by combining BM25 lexical search with Jina AI vector embeddings, using the rank_eval API to validate the improvement with real numbers.
